Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
South Australian trot trainer Aaron Bain hasn’t had any of his stable horses start in a race since the 30th of November. Usually Bain has multiple runners every week, often 2 or 3 times a week. But in the last 3 and 1/2 weeks he has had none. Why not? It’s a mystery to us. […]
These are the trees that cost Mr Seymour’s team $43 000 for cutting down with the wrong permit. I wouldn’t pay 2 cents for them myself. They’re ugly bloody things. But so is what comes next. Now you see them. Now you don’t.
There is an unconfirmed rumor floating around that the builders on the Globe Derby site may have broken the law. The whisper is that they cut down trees with the wrong permit. Protected trees that needed the right one to be touched. If the whispered words are right its cost them a $43 000 fine. […]

Are the South Australian trot Stewards blind? Or are the blind simply those that don’t want to see? Kevin Weidenbach’s horse didn’t shift in and lock wheels with Dani Hill’s horse on the home turn. They were nowhere near each other on the bend. The two horses came together in the straight, when Hill’s drive […]

The horse is a cat that has had 40 starts for just 2 wins, so you know something is going on that probably shouldn’t be. […]
Some people say that you should only back SA trot trainer ‘Super Mario’ Borg’s horses when they are in the first few races on the card. I know not why they say such things, but I disagree. So too do the stable punters who piled into Tuff Tiger in the last race at Globe Derby […]
What’s a verterinarian? Does anybody except SA Harness Racing know?
Watch the horse on the outside here BEWARE THE FURY in the 2nd race at Globe Derby last Monday. See it get a flying start. After viewing start the Stewards and the Starter claimed to be satisfied that BEWARE THE FURY had not been going forward until the barrier had been released. Yeah right. All […]
The disintegration of SA gallops trainer Ryan Balfour is complete. Racing South Australia have ruled that he is no longer a fit and proper person to hold a license. Balfour’s license has been cancelled, effective immediately. The license cancellation period is indefinite. He may reapply for a license in the future, but I wouldn’t like […]
